Outfitting Team Scotland at the Delhi 2010 Commonweath Games October 2010

This year we were delighted again to be chosen to supply the Parade Uniforms for Team Scotland at the Delhi 2010 Commonwealth Games. They will be wearing kilts and kilted skirts in the distinctive Commonwealth Games Tartan.

Designed for the livery of the Scottish Team for the Commonwealth Games and first used for the Games in Melbourne, Australia, 2006. The Commonwealth Games were the brainchild of Bobby Robinson and were first held in Canada in 1930. The name Robinson is associated with the Clan Gunn and therefore the Gunn tartan was used as the base for the new design. Colours: the mid blue colour with the white line through it closely represents the saltire and the bright purple colour was introduced as the colour of the thistle, which features on the Commonwealth Games Council logo.
